John,
There is a very nice set of toolpost grinder plans by C.W.Woodson in the August/September 1943 issues of Popular Science. If you are interested, I found the September issue on Google Books and I have the August issue at home.
September 1943 Popular Science

Thanks Tom
I have just spent the last 2 hours reading that magazine

They are addicting John. My dad has pretty much every issue of Popular Science and Popular Mechanics from the 1940's and 50's. They are is a goldmine of information for the machinist.

I found a South Bend version a few years ago in a dumpster. Last week i went in a thrift shop and an old machinist (or his kids) donated lots of his items and i got four new 3" dia grinding wheels for .50 cents...Bob
